3M Detection System Model 9100 Series Owner's Manual
Introducing the detection system
Key features
The 3M™ Detection System Model 9100 Series assists in preventing unauthorized removal of a library’s
materials when they are marked with 3M™ RFID tags. The system offers the following features:
•
Integrated audio and visual alarms to alert staff when an item containing a secured tag is detected
•
Integrated, directional patron counter
•
Corridor width of 36 in. [91,4 cm] to comply with ADA guidelines
•
Direct mount, baseplate or buried cable mounting options
•
Support for configurations up to seven corridors
•
Support for integration with the optional 3M™ Command Center
Configurable alarm options
Libraries can configure the Model 9100 Detection Systems to alarm when one of four events occurs:
•
When the system detects a secured tag and a patron exits
•
When the system detects a secured tag and a patron enters
•
When the system detects a secured tag and a patron exits or enters
•
Whenever the system detects a secured tag. This means the system will alarm anytime a secured tag is close
enough for detection
The alarming option is configurable at installation by the technician or anytime using the optional Command
Center software.
Note: Command Center settings override configuration changes entered by a technician after the technician
disconnects from the system.
Alarm behavior
The alarm behavior you see will differ depending upon which firmware version is installed in your system.
For firmware versions before version 1.8.3, large multi-corridor detection systems flash all lattice LEDs when
only a single secured tag is detected in a corridor, but patrons are detected in other corridors.
With firmware version 1.8.3 or later, multi-corridor detection systems flash LEDs only in the corridors in which
secured items are detected. Additionally, when the system is configured to alarm upon detection of any secured
item, a single panel lights up if a lattice detects secured items. Thus, if a secured item is detected within range
of a lattice, but outside the lattice corridor, that lattice (only) alarms.

detects a secured tag. Verify that the system is alarming in the way it is configured by walking through the
corridor with an item that is known to be in the secured state.
Note: The alarming option is configurable at installation by the installing technician or anytime by library staff
using the optional 3M™ Command Center software.
Check the patron count
•
The patron counter keeps track of how many patrons have
entered and how many have exited through all corridors. It also
keeps a total count.
•
The patron counter display is located on one of the lattices as
shown.
•
→ and ← arrows indicate which direction the count is for (in or
out of the library). The ═ sign indicates the total for both
directions.
•
The top row of the display automatically cycles through the three
counts and the bottom row shows the number of alarms that have
occurred.
•
The optional 3M Command Center software collects patron
count statistics that can be viewed by staff using a web interface.

3M Detection System Model 9100 Series Owner's Manual
Training your staff
A key element of any media loss prevention effort is a successful staff training program. Your system will be
much more effective with the active cooperation and participation of your entire library staff. We recommend
that you periodically conduct formal training sessions on the following subjects in order to make the best use of
your system:
•
Owner’s manual review
•
Materials tagging with 3M™ RFID tags
•
Your library’s security policies
•
How to respond when the alarm sounds
•
Alarm log use
Hands-on practice
After reviewing this manual, your staff will benefit from actual hands-on experience with the detection system
products they are expected to use. We suggest you start by demonstrating the proper techniques for each tagging
procedure. You may wish to conduct the actual practice as follows:
1. Make sure that all the other 3M Library Systems products are installed and functional.
2. Let each staff member practice installing the tags on library items.
3. Let each staff member practice securing and unsecuring materials.
Review of your library’s security policies
Before practicing how to respond to alarms, staff should be familiar with the library’s security policies as they
relate to theft of materials. It is important that staff become familiar with state and local laws governing patron’s
rights and responsibilities, and the response should be consistent for all patrons caught in an alarm.
To help staff stay informed of security measures, your policy should be in writing and kept with your training
kit along with any other procedures you follow.
Note: It is particularly important for staff members to know what procedures the library follows
when theft is suspected or when it is necessary to contact a local law enforcement agency.
A critical phase of staff training concerns the proper steps to take when the security system alarm sounds. The
value of tact and courtesy when handling this delicate situation cannot be overemphasized. Your staff members
should receive as much preparation as possible to make them feel comfortable. With the proper training, your
staff will be more likely to effectively deal with patrons who activate the alarm.
Responding to alarms can be a sensitive situation but can also be handled confidently and effectively as long as
your library has established procedures and your staff members are fully trained in following them.

3M Detection System Model 9100 Series Owner's Manual
What to do when the alarm sounds
Generally, remain calm and courteous. Don’t panic and don’t rush to assumptions about the person who
triggered the alarm. It’s not possible to be immediately certain of the thoughts or motives of the person. Never
accuse anyone of theft by word, by facial expression, or by tone of voice. In rare occasions, the alarm may have
triggered falsely. In other cases, an item may not have been unsecured properly, or the person holding the item
that caused the alarm may not even be aware it is in their possession. Always respond in a positive,
nonthreatening manner.
Possible alarm scenarios
In simple terms, a patron might respond to a triggered alarm in either of three ways:
1. The patron might stop in the corridor.
2. The patron might be unaware they have caused the alarm, disregard it, and casually continue to exit.
3. The patron might run for the exit.
In the third scenario, the answer is obvious: follow your library’s policy for theft.
The solution for the first and second scenarios may not be so clear-cut and you will want to exercise courtesy
and tact because you will want the patron’s cooperation and in most cases the patron will want to cooperate.
After asking the patron to return to the counter, you might typically ask “Excuse me, did I forget to check out
one of your items?” or “Did you perhaps pick up one of the library’s books with your own things?” These are
courteous questions and they don’t accuse the patron of theft. Be sure to smile and ask the questions in a
friendly, nonthreatening manner.
Process and unsecure all items again. If you discover an item that hasn’t been properly checked out, never
accuse the patron of stealing. Simply act as if the error was an oversight—it more than likely was—and you can
resolve the situation easily in this manner.
If the patron is uncooperative or causes the alarm to sound again, follow the policy that your library has
established for possible theft of materials.

3M Detection System Model 9100 Series Owner's Manual
Unwanted alarms
Your detection system is virtually free of false alarms. Occasionally your system may alarm and your staff may
find that the patron does not have unauthorized library materials. Unwanted alarms may be caused by tags on
items carried into the library such as books from another library.
Unwanted alarms are generally infrequent and will vary depending on the patrons and the proximity of your
library to facilities that are releasing items containing tags. Because it is not possible to distinguish between
unwanted alarms and alarms with potential item loss, all responses to alarms must be consistent and follow your
management policies. If patrons see no response to alarms, the system becomes less effective. When you decide
that a tag on an item from outside your library caused an alarm, follow these steps.
1. Explain the problem to the patron.
2. Verify that all of the patron’s library materials are properly checked out.
3. Allow the patron to exit the library.
Many patrons will learn from the experience and will not carry items that may cause alarms into the library.

1. Connect the configuration computer to an open, unsecured wireless network, or to a wireless access point
that is configured as described in Appendix C — Wireless network access point device for configuring the
wireless network module.
2. Determine the IP address assigned to the Detection System by the network. The device name is Digiboard.
The MAC address starts with 00-40-9d.
a) If connected to a temporary wireless access point (configured as described in Appendix C — Wireless
network access point device for configuring the wireless network module), position the configuration
wireless access point within 12 inches of the lattice group. This reduces the likelihood of interference
from other access points in the area.
b) Launch the Digi Device Discovery utility, or other network management tool, to search for and discover
devices on the network.
c) Note the IP address of the Detection System.
3. Launch a web browser.
